Fired for going 15 over on a 6% grade.

Would you recommend other truck drivers "keep up with car traffic" when going down one of the most famous speed traps in the Southeast? Mont Eagle is famous for ticketing truck drivers for "speeding" in the truck speed zone and also ticketing truck drivers that ignore the MANDATORY BRAKE CHECK/rest area at the top of the hill.

If you had a CB on you might have avoided the whole incident, besides the obvious way. We all make mistakes. LEARN from them. I thank God my mistakes, some of them MUCH worse than yours, were often not noticed BUT I learned from them and stopped making them. Many people when they have a close call or bad outcome, brush it off as bad luck and just keep on doing the thing, or thinking the same way, as that which got them to have the close call or bad outcome.

If they run PSP -yes , chicago gang doesn't care about PSP
I can't recommend anyone .. not to be blamed after ... People have different expectations.
I personally down to 1 truck trailer and one spare truck , have anothe op running for me and thats about it .

 

It can take a little time before it reflects on your PSP. I'm guessing 30 days after the event it should show on a PSP if it will show on the PSP. I don't remember where I got 30 days to show up.

 

Whoever is hiring at the moment has a chance to snipe best of the best drivers considering the market we are in !

 

... He needs to get hired before it will pop

 

I don't understand what that means, but I'm sure it's my fault.

 

It’s done that way so it’ll damage the carrier’s safety score. It’ll also jack up your carrier’s insurance come renewal time.. That’s thousands of dollars they’ll have to deal with now.

 

So just to clarify, you did not get a ticket? If you didn't get a ticket you may be ok. I think you got a violation because you were going down Monteagle. I will need some clarification on that as it's not making a lot of sense how you worded it

 

It’ll show up on his PSP for 3 years…”you can run but you can’t hide”
